Looked like a short shift on the second race and the Z still won.

He let me have the Go and chased me down, well, wasnt much of a chase. Like watching a Tiger go after wounded prey

I wish i would of dumped it into 3rd gear though, but since it was for fun, i'd rather not try to break my baby right after getting the engine all tuned up.

Both are sick cars.

I love V8 RX7s.
I was so close to buying a 355 SBC FC for a project car.
